    Wind scorpions. Aka Camel Spiders. There’s only two right now…

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solifugae

    Edit:

    Claims that Solifugae aggressively chase people are also untrue, as they are merely trying to stay in the shade/shadow provided by the human

    Even with the citation, that’s still gonna be an OH FUCK NAW, from me.

      TIL if a camel spider chases me, I should run like the dickens toward a stationary shadow.

      I have no idea when I’ll need that information but I’m glad to have it.
